It's almost bad luck to take the commanding lead over your opponent: No idea how TL gets so lucky. Maybe it's just a testament to the way they organize their tournaments, the qualifiers, and so on. They just end up with the most amazing players playing the most amazing games. It's not luck. It's destiny. | ||

B) Chill admits he did not follow instructions because he liked to see feedback. I'd be very mad if I was the loser of this event, no matter who it happened to be. A force outside your control made artificial game conditions out of the blue. Imagine in a chess game if someone started talking in the middle of it and told you to wait to make moves. That is what happened. It could of even been done intentionally (not saying it was just it could of been) to create issue. Granted I think TL should of had the casters live at the event as well all in the same place. Casters on machines controlled by TL. So overall it's Chill fault and TL staff fault for allowing the setup to happen how it did. It has now been shown that you cannot trust casters to understand the technology they must be hand-held and watched to ensure they follow the rules. This is how it is done for other casters in other sports and for a reason the caster is there to cast not to deal with complicated internet technology and rule comprehension.

If you think having IRC open will cause your computer to lag than you should get off the internet, it's not a good place for you. | ||

I actually think it's Karma. TL does a lot for this community without asking much in return and it seems like they luck out with way more than the average number of epic series' throughout their various events (and not just in the finals either!). | ||
